everything cake with peach frozen yog
Dorie Greenspan’s “Everything Cake” (here with peaches, Italian prune plums and a sprinkling of almonds) with homemade peach frozen yogurt.

First time making the Dorie cake. As I mentioned upthread, I had a wee mishap with the oven involving… not turning the oven on until it had been in there for at least 20 minutes. Oops!

I like the cake, though. The technique of adding melted butter last into the recipe was new to me. I was concerned the butter wasn’t really combining with the other ingredients; ultimately I guess it did. The crumb was very fine and close-textured. I topped it with about 3/4 of a peach, a half a prune plum, some regular sugar, and almonds, and substituted some lemon oil for half of the vanilla.

Will make again!
